IF YOU DISAPPEAR
Verse 1
The city’s dead, like a crumpled photo in hand,
Every sound cracks like clocks that no longer stand.
I searched for you in faces, in windows, in light,
But found only cold in voices not mine.
You were my spark in a concrete winter’s chill,
My air in a room with no ceiling above,
And now even the walls cry out for you still,
While the living words in my throat fall mute, unloved.

Chorus
If you disappear - the world will fall apart,
If you disappear -I’ll lose my heart.
If you disappear - my soul drifts alone,
It beats, but as if it’s no longer my own.

Verse 2
I clung to us like a fragile thread,
That saves a madman above the empty abyss,
But you look through sleep - wanting to forget,
As if I’ve become for you a quiet, cold mist.
My thoughts are like birds with broken wings,
They fall to the ground, never reaching the skies,
I’d burn this world if I were fire,
But the fire… it’s you… only you… only you.

Chorus
If you disappear - the world will fall apart,
If you disappear - I’ll lose my heart.
If you disappear - my soul drifts alone,
It beats, but as if it’s no longer my own.

Do you hear me? I’m screaming to you
Through years and through the night’s deep hue.
The world stands frozen inside my chest,
While time may erase our names,
I know: our silence will ignite with light.
